Axel Howind commented on MATH-1661:
-----------------------------------
An automatic module name in a 3.x release would be a first step that already
solves some of the problems users of downstream projects face. A "real" module
info would be perfect. AFAIK, it shouldn't even be necessary to create a multi
release jar as module info should be ignored by Java tools in version below 9.
There were issues with certain tools from outside the JDK that couldn't cope
with a module-info.class file (IIRC eclipse), but I hope in the past six years
these tools caught up. So it should be possible to have a JDK 8 compatible jar
that also contains a module info for later versions without even resorting to
multi release jars.
